Description Nick Boldt CLA 2008-05-06 20:01:39 EDT 
1. Install Eclipse 3.4M7
2. Start up Eclipse
3. Help > Software Updates... > Available Software

See first screenshot.

4. Expand all the site twisties -- note that no features are offered for install! So, not only are these sites strange-looking, they contain nothing I can install. Woo!

5. Close the Software Updates dialog.

6. Help > Software Updates... > Available Software

7. Now the strange sites have vanished!

8. Shut down Eclipse and restart.

9. Help > Software Updates... > Available Software

10. A different set of strange (and useless/empty) sites appear. See second screenshot.

Tentatively assigning to John as I believe he works on this.
